?? AI Adoption: Beyond Zero or One Thinking
One key takeaway: AI isn’t just about automation; it's about collaboration. Some key chapters and notes from it.
?? Custom benchmarks > General model benchmarks
Accuracy is discussed a lot, We need to go for custom benchmarks based on use cases not solely relying on model benchmarks, The Perspective shared from Arxiv is interesting read
?? AI as assistance, not replacement
This is no Zero or 1, I resonate with this Arxiv paper perspective that highlights based on the domain/use cases. This perspective is very important than seeing GenAI as prompt-based use case adoption. Evaluate and Pick AI for productivity / Automation / Assistance
?? Strategic adoption tailored to domain-specific needs
Let’s continue pushing boundaries, asking better questions, and reimagining AI applications together!
My friend over a conversation and asked for a party, I informed this marathon for the course is 4X effort but revenue is not a measure for this, some things you do for satisfaction and to share your perspectives.
Happy Learning!!!
